In 1987 director John McTiernan had his first global success with “Predator”, starring action legend Arnold Schwarzenegger. The director continued that genre successfully with other hits like the “Die Hard” series, or the very entertaining “Last Action Hero”, also starring Schwarzenegger. For “Predator” McTiernan consulted a rising star of the film music business: Alan Silvestri. Both, working seriously on “Predator” got their awards: The filmmaker got lifted to an acknowledged (action) director and Silvestri, besides earning much reputation, literally winning awards for his score, that supported the movie remaining what it is today: a classic. Enjoy!
I saw it in theaters at age 5 on my birthday after my family and I had my party at one of the showbiz pizza places then went to the theater next door when we lived in St. Louis
Listen to this almost every day. Very motivational to hear this. Have a bad back and both hips are shot. Lots of pain non stop but I always remember when Dutch and Dillion were pulling the ropes attached to the trees. Helps me think about the time when I was relevant. Great music!
I understand you have some physical health issues, however, you’re always relevant my brother. Stay strong mentally. So happy that this music motivates you. Same here! I’ve been listening to this music since I first saw the movie back in ‘88 on vhs at the tender age of 8! They don’t make ‘em like they used to.
Building the trap is such a perfect atmosphere for that scene, that sense of a rational wrestle over fear and anger when preparing to confront the overwhelming threat.
The Greatest ever ensemble /symphony/BGM /whatever ! The Greatest Movie that boasts perfect casting, dialogues, stunts, editing,cinematography,production designing ,direction and ofcos the best screenplay ever that keeps u hooked from the start to the end !! There might be several other movies that excel in select departments but not all like this ensemble achieved ! Kudos John Mc Tiernan, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Alan Silvestri !! Watched my first time in 1987 and couldn't stop eversince !
One amazing film and its perfect soundtrack summed up in one musical suite. Even the Arnie roar moment - epic. The soundtrack for this film has everything.
Exceptional composition by Alan Silvestri with an equally exceptional sound recording that brings it to levels of excellence that I have rarely had the opportunity to listen to. I was so enthusiastic that I use this recording to test stereo systems in all audible and dynamic ranges. Fantastic!!
These '80s action film composers wipe the floor with anything out there today, with few exceptions. But that was the greatest decade for the action film in general. Prove me wrong :D
@@tctyt YES! Just "composing" (more like phoning in) the same score every time, regardless of subject. Yet I see youngsters praising Zimmer as ThE gREaTeSt CoMpoSeR eVeRRRR and think "Oh kid, go educate yourself on 20th Century film and tell me you still think that in a few years."
Hats off to Alan Silvestri this sounds fantastic! The sound of a real orchestra with brilliant dynamics...I hope the future of big budget movie soundtracks isn't all sample libraries played via a computer. Real people playing real instruments shouldn't be completely replaced. 🎵🎶🎵
When I First saw this movie I believe on Video Tape I fell in love with Alan Silvestri's Score. This has got to be one of the best he has ever written. I can't even remember how many times I've played the CD but it has been a lot. It's also one great movie in my opinion. Thanks Fred for another great choice in choosing this great score as usual to upload. Out.
The Story, the Cast, the Action, the Script, the Music, the Alien - 100% and above. Probably the GAMAT, the Greatest Action Movie of All Times. A cult movie on a par with the Matrix which is highly philosophical on top of being an action movie and of course the Terminator. Now that I think of it, isn't the Predator the coronavirus pandemic of fear of an "alien" killer, the Matrix the ongoing NWO dictatorship that is hunting the dissenters, and the Terminator the coming A.I. and 5G revolution?
It’s the ultimate man movie. Real Men, old school men who battled their hearts out and one came out alive. They don’t make men or movies like this anymore.
@@videowilliams That Gave Me Goosebumps! So happy a critic took time to mention the score and in particular that part. They play it when Mac is sitting next to his fallen comrade Blain and he's reminiscing about their mercenary days too if I recall correctly.

Spannende Interpretation dieses fein komponierten Meisterwerks mit perfekt artikulierten Töne aller Instrumente. Der geniale Komponist/Dirigent leitet das funktionelle Orchester im rhythmischen Tempo mit völlig effektiver Dynamik. Echt atemberaubend!
8:55 “if it bleeds we can kill it” I also call this part of the soundtrack, the “men getting shit done sequence” 💪🏻 Damn I love this score. They simply don’t make ‘em like they used to. Superb stuff here!!
For the original Predator they did some kinda film look effect, and managed to build a LUT that really emulated the whole photochemical look. Whatever algorithm they used to get that optical printer halation effect was very well designed. 🤔
Trilha sonora marcante espetacular do filme predador que assistir com meu pai de todos os filmes do predador essa trilha foi a que mais marcou composta pelo premiado compositor alan sivestri
The Predator came looking for sport kill and I remember the Native American dude, deciding to make this predator's day, stay behind, let the group go on and go one on one with him. It a pretty significant movie. I stopped at 'Alien vs Predator 2.' At end of first 'A v P,' you learn the Predator victor is impregnated with the Alien. The music very dramatic.
This is an authentic timeless masterpiece! 👍👍👍 Alan Silvestri is a genius!
35 years old and one of Alan Silvesrti’s best scores!
Love the main theme and making the jungle setting creepy and intense
.m😮8
When you see the newest Predator films, you realize how good it was this one with its amazing music. It is just incredible!!!
To be fair, 2010's PREDATORS was a good film.

One of the greatest themes in musical history...in my own little opinion! Thanks for the upload :)
Yes!! 💪
Intellectual movie snobs guffaw about this film, but its soundtrack and story action are through the original roof.
I saw it in theaters at age 5 on my birthday after my family and I had my party at one of the showbiz pizza places then went to the theater next door when we lived in St. Louis

This is how I remember Predator. Best soundtrack ever.
john carpenter as the best soundtracks get it right ,the fog ,

Exactly.
Hans Zimmer and his band of young ghostwriters are absolute hacks of Movie Music.

On ne se lasse pas de la BO 35 ans après elle reste indémodable
This soundtrack made this movie . Lot of good cinema
This is a powerful and heartbreaking music! Alan Silvestri is an excellent movie music composer. 🎉🎉🎉

Building the trap was epic
Masterclass everything was just perfect in this movie
That drum (or whatever) motive that weaves through the film: haunting.
7:47 Goodbye, bro.
That horn hits me in the feels every time.
not when you see this movie 10 times. But for the first time, the predator, the music, arnie. simply amazing
Mac he was a good soldier
He was my friend
Una obra maestra, y una de mis peliculas favoritas, grande arnold.
One of the best scores of all time😀👍
The best soundtrack for a film ever
Insuperable.
1987: Predator - Rated R
Directed By John McTiernan
Music Composed By Alan Slivestri
Predator Soundtrack....the perfect theme for hunter based stories
Arnold's best movie.
RIP Carl Weathers

Alan Silvestri. One of my favorite composers. He also did the Back to the Future trilogy, Judgment night to name a few
My first horror movie, I'll never forget🖤
This is played like the old western movies orchestra it is a pure classic and evergreen

You forgot about the ‘Protestants’… that’s everybody’s Herpes that won’t go away.
You need to smoke less of whatever you're doing on the daily.
It’s the ultimate man movie. Real
Men, old school men who battled their hearts out and one came out alive. They don’t make men or movies like this anymore.
Predator is covid and Arnold is the CURE
Chill out dick wad - Arnie 💪 T2
to me its the best part of the movie. that mr silvestri music. thank u i loveeee it.🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴
this music and ambiant made 60% of the movie, Silvestri is one of the best especialy on this BO
This and Back to the Future are the greatest soundtracks to me. Phenomenal work.
Great job on giving that jungle theme. Definitely paints that picture in my head.
Fantastic concept Mr Silvestri!❤❤❤
When im listening this, remember all scenes from the movie😲 awsome... Great sounds and great music1👍
Always loved the parts from 12:10 - 13:14 Just beautiful
i like 13:15 to the end lol.
This is my favourite part too Joel very moving 😍
Indeed. One critic called it the "Fanfare For The Common Mercenary".

I loved working out to it in the gym.

The music for this film is just perfect! Thanks for posting it!!!
8:55 “if it bleeds we can kill it”
I also call this part of the soundtrack, the “men getting shit done sequence” 💪🏻
Damn I love this score. They simply don’t make ‘em like they used to. Superb stuff here!!
Fantastic film and fantastic music
Funtastic music
Stick around…. To listen to one of the best movie sound tracks ever
Best of the best
One of the best!! Big up Mr Silvestri!!!!!
For the original Predator they did some kinda film look effect, and managed to build a LUT that really emulated the whole photochemical look. Whatever algorithm they used to get that optical printer halation effect was very well designed. 🤔
Beyond some of the greatest...like Pinot diganio.
The music certainly added tension during the scenes of gore on the screen
The music is as badassery as the team members.
Research has proven that men prefer Predator to getting married.
La música es mejor que la película, es más la música es la película.
майстерно, дякую 💛💙
wonderful music thanks for sharing
Incredible .....
GAT TO DA CHOPPER!!! 🔥
😂😂😂
Grande PREDATOR ...‼
musique et film préféré de Tous les temps...❤👋👍🙏

Fav score and film of all time. I just got a gigantic Jungle Hunter Predator tattoo on my forearm haha.

Great movie and soundtrack.
Soundtrack makes me feel im hunted by predator
11:18 masterpiece

Jungle Trek 10/10 !
If you listen to Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring ( example ritual action of the ancestors ) you will find its influence on this score
Alien 1979, The Thing 1982 , Aliens 1985 , Predator 1987...
God bless these glorious movies! 🙏🏻
Good old times films!!!
Yes, definitely great movies. However, don’t forget Outland (1981 / Sean Connery).
Very SCARY music!!!!
10:11 everytime!
1:49
Exactly thats is my favorite part
Just what i came to look for
This soundtrack is 60% of the film
the other 40% is when Arnold says "Stick around"
@@erkierkierki you're right!
👍🏼👍🏼
